Chapter 107 Awakening
The other person was actually more like a dead man, Jiang Hui probed for a while.

However, some signs of life did remain on the other person during this process.

Just now, she noticed for the second time that the other person's eyelashes trembled. It wasn't the kind of tremor caused by external shaking, but rather a tremor caused by the movement of the eyeballs behind the back.

This proves that the other person's eyes are moving, and he may still be conscious.

Hillman was much more nervous than Jiang Hui, but the conclusion he reached after personally inspecting the site was even more heartbreaking. He clearly found it difficult to accept.

He began to blame himself for not finding this place sooner. Why did things turn out this way? Why hadn't the school found this place and saved them yet?

Seeing his instructor, who was protecting him, end up like this, Hillman was nearly emotionally devastated. Jiang Hui saw that he was completely numb, and it was only after Jiang Hui pulled him away that he was able to find a place to continue checking on him.

Then he saw Jiang Hui take out something that looked like a supplement from his bag. He wondered what use a stamina supplement would be when the person was already like this.

But isn't the color of this supplement... a little off?

Jiang Hui tentatively pinched the person's cheek, which was still soft. She immediately pried open the person's mouth and poured the medicine in.

"What did you pour out?" someone asked belatedly, clearly unaware that men don't easily shed tears.

"I'm not too sure either, but I'll give it a try," Jiang Hui replied.

That was the only potion she had left in her bag that might be related to healing; it was a live cell biological potion she had exchanged at the temporary landing point.

She didn't know what she was thinking at the time, actually spending several points to exchange for the potion. She didn't even really understand what the potion was for, only that it seemed to be a healing potion. The senior sister who gave her the item had been trying to convince her that the potion could be used even if someone had lost an arm or a leg.

So now she wants to try and see if this will work... If not, then it's fate.

Worried that the medicine would leak out because he couldn't close his chin, she could only hold his chin up while observing his condition.

One breath, two breaths, about three or four minutes passed, and the other party was completely unresponsive, as if asleep.

It seems it's no use. Well, she's not breathing. It's normal for someone injured like that to die; how could a single dose of medicine save her? Even in interstellar space... huh?

Jiang Hui suddenly felt the cool skin on her palm twitch slightly, and before she could withdraw her hand, her tightly closed eyelids twitched a few times.

There was a response.

The two people nearby instinctively held their breath, unsure of what to do in response.

Those eyes twitched violently a few times before suddenly calming down, as if nothing had happened before. But Jiang Hui, who was so close, noticed that some color seemed to have returned to the other person's face. Although the main color of the face was still pale, there was a faint trace of life in it.

"Instructor... Instructor?" Jiang Hui called softly.

Hillman called out several times urgently. Then, whether the other person was woken up by their calls or had woken up at the right time, they actually opened their eyes slowly, half-covering them, but they were definitely open.

"Instructor, can you recognize us?" Jiang Hui wanted to confirm the other person's consciousness. Thinking that his arm was injured like this and his throat was probably blocked with blood clots so he couldn't say anything, he added, "If you can recognize us, blink your eyes, blink for a while."

Actually, she didn't have much hope at this point, because the other party was seriously injured. A fang as big as an adult's arm had pierced diagonally through his shoulder, near his lung and heart. He had lost so much blood that it seemed unlikely he would survive.

Jiang Hui was somewhat worried that the other person's reaction was a temporary burst of energy before death caused by the drugs.

Unexpectedly, the other person's consciousness was extremely clear, and he actually blinked his eyes obediently.

Good, it seems there's still hope.

“Then remember this: you absolutely, positively must not fall asleep. We’ll find a way to get you out of here. The finish line isn’t far from here. If you can hold on and not fall asleep, you’ll definitely survive. Do you hear me?” Jiang Hui added.

Actually, she wasn't sure either. A person's life or death can be decided in an instant, and when that happens, even the most miraculous medicine can't save them.

Moreover, a distance of over ten kilometers is an insurmountable chasm for someone facing imminent death and needing to race against time. What's more, the school didn't even notice that a group of students were nearly devoured as snacks by the star beasts, and an instructor was about to die here?
Jiang Hui was unsure of what to do. In her previous life, she was just an ordinary office worker. She hadn't even really started her life here before encountering this situation. She was actually quite flustered at the moment, and not as calm as Hillman, who was just a real child.

But she also knew better than anyone that she couldn’t panic, otherwise the young instructor who had briefly taught them a lot and had protected more than a dozen new students with his own body might really not survive at all.

So she said this to Mays to give her faith, and also to give herself some confidence.

Then Jiang Hui saw the other person blink clearly at a slower pace, responding to him.

Okay, now even if he didn't understand, she'll consider it as if he did.

So how do we pull this terrifying, dark thing out of the other person's body? This is the first problem Jiang Hui and his team encountered.

That's a good question. Jiang Hui should be thankful that the school hasn't cut corners on student safety at all, because she discovered that the hiking poles she always thought were very sharp really were.

She tried using it to cut the fangs by hiding the blade side and was successful, and the effect was much better than the mech fragments.

Luckily, she had just tried to pull out a few useful pieces of armor, but she accidentally cut half of her palm. The wound was probably small, so the bleeding wasn't heavy, but it was a blurry, bloody mess.

Surprisingly, these mech fragments, despite being so sharp, didn't cut very well. Or perhaps the fang was immune to this mech material, making it impossible to cut even half a section no matter how hard I tried.

Seeing that the instructor, who was being manipulated to the point of near death, was becoming increasingly confused over time, Jiang Hui and Hillman had no choice but to speed up their movements and cut harder, but in the end, they still had little effect.

Just as the two of them were getting a little anxious, Jiang Hui suddenly remembered the hiking pole she had carefully put away earlier, one side of which seemed very sharp. She took it out, intending to give it a try, and to her surprise, it worked like a miracle.

The blade of the trekking pole was far more effective than the mecha fragments, quickly cutting through one side. Before she could catch her breath, Jiang Hui handed the item to Hillman on the other side without hesitation.
